Fibre-reinforced plastics - Thermosetting moulding compounds and prepregs - Determination of cure characteristics (ISO 12114:1997)

Faserverstärkte Kunststoffe - Härtbare Formmassen und Prepregs - Bestimmung des Härtungsverhaltens (ISO 12114:1997)

Diese internationale Norm beschreibt zwei Methoden zur Bestimmung des Härtungsverhaltens von faserverstärkten Formmassen und Prepregs. Die charakteristischen Werte sind: - Wärmeentwicklung durch die exotherme Reaktionstönung; - Wärmeausdehnung der Formmasse während des Temperaturanstiegs; - Schwindung durch die Härtungsreaktion. Die beschriebenen Methoden sind für alle härtbaren Formmassen mit Faserverstärkung anwendbar. Das Hauptanwendungsgebiet sind Formmassen auf der Basis von ungesättigten Polyesterharzen (UP).

Plastiques renforcés de fibres - Compositions de moulage et préimprégnés - Détermination des caractéristiques de durcissement (ISO 12114:1997)

La présente Norme internationale prescrit deux méthodes pour la détermination des caractéristiques de durcissement des compositions de moulage thermodurcissables renforcées de fibres et des préimprégnés. Les caractéristiques mesurées sont -- l'émission de chaleur due à l'exothermie de la réaction; -- la dilatation thermique du produit accompagnant l'augmentation de température; -- le retrait dû à la réaction de durcissement. Les méthodes sont applicables à toutes les compositions à base de matrices thermodurcissables renforcées de fibres. Le principal domaine d'application porte sur les produits à base de résines polyesters insaturés. La méthode I est une méthode d'essai permettant de déterminer la réactivité d'une composition thermodurcissable selon un mode opératoire simple. Cette mesure se rapporte uniquement au comportement réactif de la matrice et à son état de stabilisation (facteur influant sur la durée de vie de la composition de moulage). La méthode II est une méthode d'essai qui nécessite un équipement plus sophistiqué, prend plus de temps mais donne des indicatio  269ns détaillées supplémentaires sur le comportement physique de la composition dans des conditions de moulage habituelles simulées. Il en résulte une plaque qui pourra être utilisée ultérieurement pour déterminer certaines propriétés du produit moulé.

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented
on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 12114 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISOTTC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 13, Composites and reinforcement
fibres.

Introduction
The description of the cure characteristics of thermosetting moulding
compounds is rather complex. Various parameters and properties like
reactivity, temperature, pressure and shrinkage are of interest to the end
user. Some of these parameters influence each other. For this reason,
several test methods are necessary for quality control and to determine the
effect of varying the proportion of any particular component in the
formulation. The characteristics determined are selected to enable different
moulding compounds and prepregs to be compared and their shelf life
assessed.
One important characteristic of thermosetting compounds is their reactivity,
i.e. their ability to polymerize under the influence of a catalyst and/or heat.
This reactivity can be evaluated by various methods. This International
Standard gives two such methods:
- the first of which is a simple procedure which is limited to the
determination of reactivity and shelf life by measuring the variation of
temperature as a function of time under the conditions usually used in
production;
- the second method is more sophisticated and gives information on the
physical behaviour of the compound under simulated moulding
conditions.
The description of the curing behaviour of a thermosetting compound is not
possible by a single value. It is dependent on several parameters, like
pressure, temperature and shrinkage, which influence each other. This
interdependence must also be described. Such a description can be given
by mathematical functions or expressed in terms of a set of curves for the
various parameters, as in this International Standard. The curves for a
particular compound are all shown in the same figure to enable the
interdependence of the parameters concerned to be seen at a glance.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD @ Iso IS0 12114:1997(E)
Fibre-reinforced plastics - Thermosetting moulding compounds
and prepregs - Determination of cure characteristics
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies two methods for the determination of the cure characteristics of fibre-
reinforced thermosetting moulding compounds and prepregs.
The characteristics measured are
- the heat generated by the exothermic reaction;
- the thermal expansion of the compound accompanying the rise in temperature;
- the shrinkage due to the curing reaction.
The methods specified are applicable to all compounds comprising thermosetting matrices reinforced with fibres.
The major field of application is compounds based on unsaturated polyester resins.
Method I describes a test method to determine the reactivity of a thermosetting compound by a simple procedure.
This method examines only the reactive behaviour of the matrix and its state of stabilization (one factor affecting the
shelf life of the moulding compound).
Method II describes a test method which needs more sophisticated equipment, takes more time but provides
additional detailed information about the physical behaviour of the compound under simulated practical moulding
conditions. It produces a plate which can be used for further testing to determine properties of the moulded article.

3 Definitions
For the purposes of this International Standard, the definitions given in IS0 472, IS0 8605 and IS0 8606 apply, plus
the following definitions:
3.1 reactivity: The reactivity of a thermosetting material is taken, by convention, as the maximum gradient, in
degrees Celsius per second, of a plot of the temperature of the thermosetting material as a function of time during
curing.
3.2 curing behaviour: The behaviour of a thermosetting material when moulded under commonly used moulding
conditions, as described by the following set of parameters:
- cure time;
thermal expansion;
shrinkage due to the curing reaction;
net shrinkage (reaction shrinkage less thermal expansion).
The values of these parameters will depend on the actual moulding conditions used.
3.3 elementary unit: The smallest normally commercially available entity of a given product. The description
(form, dimensions, mass, etc.) of the elementary unit will normally be defined in the product specification.
Elementary units may be supplied in the form of rolls or packages, for instance.
NOTE - For a given product, the dimensions, mass or volume of the elementary unit may change, as manufacturing
techniques evolve. without necessarily causing any modification in the properties of the product or the way in which these
properties vary within the elementary unit.

5 Sampling
For a sheet moulding compound, take a laboratory sample over the full width of the roll. Reduce the width by 5 cm
on each side to avoid edge effects.
For a bulk moulding compound, take a laboratory sample from the centre of an elementary unit. When taking
the laboratory sample, do not remove any protective sheet, and place the sample, immediately after taking it, in a
suitable bag to avoid loss of volatile matter or absorption of moisture.
The laboratory sample shall be of a size sufficient to enable the required number of test specimens to be prepared
(see 7.1).
